You get a lot for the money if we talk about value - even when it doesn´t represent THE BEST they are able to do at GO, but it is reflected in the price as well.
If you like what you see. GO for it 
Good luck with your (nice) decision!

Caliber 100-14 - Handmade? Worthy of All the Praise?
Hi to the esteemed and knowledgeable Purists on this board! I am contemplating the purchase of a GO Senator Observer. I was wondering if Caliber 100-14, which animates it, is a worthy example of the renowned Glashutte Original handcrafted horological mach...
I am only an expert of my opinion and
every Glashütte Original watch including the Senator Observer are the best kept secret of this with no worries!
No expert in any sense of the word
But GO is definitely not one of those brands which are "machine made". Handling and owning GO's, you'll come to realize that there is a lot of painstaking effort put into building the movements, and from what I know, every part, including the making of th...
Further Clarifying my Question
Richard, It's precisely after having watched that video that my interrogation, not as to GO's general level of craftsmanship, but as to the standing of Caliber 100-14 vs other GO calibers, surfaced. Basically, it looks like Caliber 100-14 has CNC-machined...

Glashütte Original cal 100 movements . . .
. . . form the foundation of their collection, along with their unrelated predecessor that's still in production, the cal 39. The exquisite finishing throughout apparent in manual winding GUB calibers isn't present, granted, but then, neither are the aski...
Thank you!
Thanks for further confirming what I had come to realize, i.e., that even if the Caliber 100 watches are not quite at the top of the GO tree, they still compare very favorably to competitor's offerings in terms of high value for money. Still highly refine...
As we say in America . . .
. . . Wunderbar ! :-) Hope to observe an Observer here soon ;-) . . .
Ask... and you shall receive!
... well: here we go, finally! It may have been more than a year, but I was still as confident in my choice as I was after consulting you! Thanks for your insights! I'm very happy! ...
Wonderful, many happy years with that watch!
congratulations; and we all here are a bit proud of being something like 'godfathers' to your watch ;-) Magnus
Excellent purchase!
Besides having a nice dial (in photos, even those of GO, is unable to grasp its beauty), it is an interesting modifcation of ! Lovely piece indeed. Thank you very much for the picture! Best, massi
Excellent choice!
I like the architecture of the Cal 100, even if it\'s not overtly traditional. Saw the luminous version of the Observer in a shop window the other day. Both versions have an impressive wrist presence.
"Better late . . .
